Amahoro. [Peace]. 阿马霍罗。[和平]。
Today, I want to speak directly to you: the people of Burundi. 今天，我想直接对你们——布隆迪人民——讲话。
Burundi's a proud and beautiful country. But in recent months, the future of the land you love has been put at risk. Leaders have spewed hateful rhetoric. Terrible acts of violence have taken the lives of innocent men, women, and children. From Burundi's painful past, we know where this kind of violence can lead. Today, you have the chance to choose a different path. 布隆迪是一个令人骄傲的美丽国家。但近几个月来，你们所热爱的这片土地的未来陷入了危险之中。领导人散播仇恨言论。可怕的暴力行为夺走了无辜男女老少的生命。从布隆迪痛苦的过去中，我们知道这种暴力会走向何方。今天，你们有机会选择一条不同的道路。
And you're not alone. For many years, your partners in the region, and the United States, have worked to help you build a peaceful and stronger country. I speak to you now as your partner and friend. 你们并不孤单。多年来，该地区的合作伙伴以及美国一直致力于帮助你们建设一个更加和平、更加强大的国家。此刻，我以你们的伙伴和朋友的身份对你们讲话。
To Burundi's leaders: Now is the time to put aside the language of hate and division. Follow through on your commitment to participate in an internationally-mediated dialogue outside of Burundi. After all, real strength is the ability to unify a country, not tear it apart. 对布隆迪的领导人：现在是摒弃仇恨与分裂言论的时候了。兑现你们的承诺，参与在布隆迪境外举行的国际调解对话。毕竟，真正的力量在于团结一个国家，而不是将其撕裂。
To Burundi's military: You represent Burundi's ability to overcome divisions and unite. You are Burundi's sons and daughters. You've helped keep peace across Africa. Now you can help keep peace at home, by staying out of political conflicts and protecting the people of Burundi. 对布隆迪的军队：你们代表着布隆迪克服分裂、实现团结的能力。你们是布隆迪的儿女。你们曾帮助维护整个非洲的和平。现在，你们可以通过远离政治冲突、保护布隆迪人民，来帮助维护国内的和平。
And to all Burundians: Remember what you can achieve when you stand together, how you emerged from colonialism and built a new nation. After civil war and strife, you've worked to rebuild. You've seen the possibility of a better, more peaceful future. Don't let political rivalry, or the voices of hate, take that away from you. 对全体布隆迪人民：请记住，当你们站在一起时，你们能够取得怎样的成就——你们是如何摆脱殖民统治、建立一个新国家的。在内战和冲突之后，你们努力重建家园。你们已经看到了一个更美好、更和平未来的可能性。不要让政治对抗或仇恨的声音将这一切从你们手中夺走。
You are one people, and now is the time to stand against violence, and to begin the hard work of uniting. The future of your country, the future you want for your children, is in your hands. 你们是一个民族，现在是时候站出来反对暴力，开始艰难的团结工作了。你们国家的未来，你们希望为子孙后代创造的未来，掌握在你们手中。
